Added sides to the single strand sole, and fitted to my daughter's foot. About 1/2 inch too big all the way around. Took both soles completely out to start again. Going to do the sole using chain and round method instead of rows. Like it better and will be significantly easier to change sizing than the rows.
Checking now to see if my idea of chain length will be in the ballpark -- 4 inches shorter than the traced foot (2 each toe and heel) might make it a little shorter too. J hook, double strand 4 yarn, am thinking 21 ch, with 20 working.
Will do this tomorrow with 3 rounds on the chain using half double crochet, double crochet and single crochet stitches -- will figure out counts and sequence probably using a pattern(s) for a smaller size and adjusting to my daughter's size.
Will keep you posted.
Lost my "working" copy of my filet shawl, have no idea what I did, anyway have to start again for the pattern. Certainly glad I keep a "master" when I do these so don't have to start entirely from scratch. UGH!
